RUSSIAN NAVY UDALOY Length: 162.8m, Bean: 19.0m, Displacement: 8200t. The Project 1155 dates to the 1970s when it was concluded that it was too costly to build large-displacement single-role combatants. The concept of a specialized surface ships was developed by Soviet designers. Two different types of warships were laid down which were Project 956 destroyer and Project 1155 large antisubmarine ship. Generally the Soviet equivalent of the American Spruance class, there are variations in SAM and air search radar among units of the class. Designed primarily as an anti-submarine warfare platform, with a long cruising range and underway replenishment capabilities, Udaloy class ships provide support to surface task forces. Udaloy reflects design changes that addressed the shortcomings of the previous Krivak program, namely the lack of helicopter facilities, limited sonar capabilities, and light air-defenses. The Udaloy has two helicopter hangars with doors that serve as a ramp to the flight deck. The Udaloy's air-defence system consists of 8 Klinok launchers, and the AK-630 and AK-100 gun mounts.
